Aunt Marie

Aunt Phyllis & Aunt Marie

Aunt Marie & Uncle JT

This isn't my first memory of Aunt Marie but one that I really appreciate. Back in 2005 when my Uncle Kenneth passed, we were all up at the ranch for the reunion. That Fast Sunday Aunt Marie bore her testimony in the Vernon branch and said once she heard that Kenneth had passed, her thoughts and concerns turned to my dad (John). She said that she wanted to make sure that he was okay. This was special to me because I know that many of my dad's older siblings had much of the responsibility to raise and care for him when he was young. Even after all these years, Aunt Marie continued to feel the need to "care" for my dad.
